Laravel 5 Model Class not found - php

Question

I am trying to port my web app from laravel 4 to 5 but I am having issues in that one of my model classes is not found.
I have tried to utilize namespacing and have the following my Models which are located locally C:\xampp\htdocs\awsconfig\app\Models
the file which the error appears in looks like
<?php
use App\Models\SecurityGroup;
function from_camel_case($input)
{
preg_match_all('!([A-Z][A-Z0-9]*(?=$|[A-Z][a-z0-9])|[A-Za-z][a-z0-9]+)!', $input, $matches);
$ret = $matches[0];
foreach ($ret as &$match)
{
$match = $match == strtoupper($match) ? strtolower($match) : lcfirst($match);
}
return implode('_', $ret);
}
$resource_types = array();
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::Instance'] = 'EC2Instance';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::NetworkInterface'] = 'EC2NetworkInterface';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::VPC'] = 'VPC';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::Volume'] = 'Volume';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::SecurityGroup'] = 'SecurityGroup';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::Subnet'] = 'Subnet';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::RouteTable'] = 'RouteTable';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::EIP'] = 'EIP';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::NetworkAcl'] = 'NetworkAcl';
$resource_types['AWS::EC2::InternetGateway'] = 'InternetGateway';
$accounts = DB::table('aws_account')->get();
$account_list = array();
foreach(glob('../resources/sns messages/*.json') as $filename)
{
//echo $filename;
$data = file_get_contents($filename);
if($data!=null)
{
$decoded=json_decode($data,true);
if(isset($decoded["Message"]))
{
//echo "found message<br>";
$message= json_decode($decoded["Message"]);
if(isset($message->configurationItem))
{
// echo"found cfi<br>";
$insert_array = array();
$cfi = $message->configurationItem;
switch ($cfi->configurationItemStatus)
{
case "ResourceDiscovered":
//echo"found Resource Discovered<br>";
if (array_key_exists($cfi->resourceType,$resource_types))
{
//var_dump($cfi->resourceType);
$resource = new $resource_types[$cfi->resourceType];
foreach ($cfi->configuration as $key => $value)
{
if (in_array($key,$resource->fields))
{
$insert_array[from_camel_case($key)] = $value;
}
}
$resource->populate($insert_array);
if (!$resource->checkExists())
{
$resource->save();
if(isset($cfi->configuration->tags))
{
foreach ($cfi->configuration->tags as $t )
{
$tag= new Tag;
$tag->resource_type = "instance";
$tag->resource_id = $resource->id;
$tag->key = $t->key;
$tag->value = $t->value;
$tag->save();
/*if(isset($cfi->awsAccountId))
{
foreach ($accounts as $a)
{
$account_list = $a->account_id;
}
if (!in_array($account_id,$account_list))
{
$account_id = new Account;
$account_id->aws_account_id = $cfi->awsAccountId;
$account_list[] = $account_id;
$account_id->save();
}
} */
}
}
}
}
else
{
echo "Creating ".$cfi["resourceType"]." not yet supported<br>";
}
break;
case 'ResourceDeleted':
// echo"found Resource Deleted<br>";
//ITEM DELETED
if (array_key_exists($cfi->resourceType,$resource_types))
{
//var_dump($cfi->resourceType);
$resource = new $resource_types[$cfi->resourceType];
if ($resource->checkExists($cfi->resourceId))
{
$resource->delete();
if( isset($cfi->configuration->tags))
{
foreach ($cfi->configuration->tags as $t )
{
$tag= new Tag;
$tag->resource_type = "instance";
$tag->resource_id = $resource->id;
$tag->key = $t->key;
$tag->value = $t->value;
if ($tag->checkExists($cfi->configuration->tags))
{
$tag->delete();
}
}
}
}
}
else
{
echo "Deleting ".$cfi["resourceType"]." not yet supported<br>";
}
break;
case 'OK':
//echo"found Resource OK<br>";
//ITEM UPDATED
if (array_key_exists($cfi->resourceType, $resource_types))
{
//var_dump($cfi->resourceType);
$resource = new $resource_types[$cfi->resourceType];
if ($resource->checkExists($cfi->resourceId))
{
foreach ($cfi->configuration as $key => $value)
{
if (in_array($key,$resource->fields))
{
$update_array[from_camel_case($key)] = $value;
}
}
$resource->populate($update_array);
$resource->save();
}
}
else
{
echo "Updating ".$cfi["resourceType"]." not yet supported<br>";
}
break;
default:
echo "Status ".$cfi['configurationItemStatus']." not yet supported<br>";
break;
}
}
}
}
}
and the corresponding model whose class cannot be found looks like :
<?php namespace App\Models;
use Eloquent;
class SecurityGroup extends Eloquent
{
protected $table = 'security_group';
public $timestamps = false;
protected $guarded = array('id');
public $fields = array('groupId',
'groupName',
'description',
'ownerId'
);
public function checkExists()
{
return self::where('group_id', $this->group_id)->first();
}
public function populate($array)
{
foreach ($array as $k => $v)
{
$this->$k = $v;
}
}
}
I am lost as to what is causing the problem I don't see any typos but then again who knows as always thanks for any help given.

Answer 1

to solve the resource type needs the full namespace declaration
